Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

Are any of you guys out there? I've been seeing more and more modded Foci here in Mankato yet I don't see any of you guys post on here. If you're out there post here and post a pic of your car. Here is mine...(well my mom's Corolla is in there as well.)

My kid lives in Mankato. He drives my red 2001 ZX3. It's got painted side moldings with the S2 spoiler, factory wheels. KW Variant 1 suspension set at about 2" drop, IHE, cams. He works at Valvoline Rapid oil change but lives over by the college. The cars loud. hard to miss when he's gettin' on it.

He's not on here. He drives the Focus because the price is right not because he's an enthusiast. Although, he gave up a newer lower mileage ZX2 to drive the Focus so I think he might be coming around. 8)

sounds like he might be with all those mods. and passing up a zx2, which in my experience gets better mileage and performs better imo

I actually see him ALL over the place. One of my friends lives down by Valvoline so I drive by there a lot. Plus I go to MSU so I see him up there a lot. I've driven by him multiple times and what not. Nice car he's got though.

So no other people from Mankato on here though?!

Yeah I knew you were from Kato Y2K. I've seen your SRT twice I think. I'll have to keep my eyes open next time I'm around the downtown Cub. Do you live down in that area?

Sorry I haven't been on these boards in a while. I'm the one who works at Cub. Nice car! I have seen it around a few times.

here's mine:

I also drive this wonderful piece of engineering

Favorite shot. Smoked a modded svt at focusfest. I felt really quick for once.

I live at highland hills and manage to have my car vandalized every few months. It really sucks. I see a couple of other modded foci around the apartments too. There is also a guy at Crawford with a red zx5 with some mods. We had a fun time in the twisties even though I was on sloppy winter tires.

This is why I can't sleep at night as long as I live here

^^^ Dang that sucks man. I have a friend who works up and HH. He was going to just work over the summer but just got a full time job. You should let me know if there is any Mankato Foci meet ups or anything like that you know of.
